Definitions

  • This invention concerns a perfected method for the gasification of fuel and also the relative gasifier device as set forth in the respective main claims.
  • the invention is applied in the production of combustible gases from solid urban and/or industrial waste, or low-cost solid products such as wood scraps or chippings, solid biomasses in general, peat, lignite, carbon fossiles and other products, possibly integrated or combined with liquid or gaseous fuels.
  • the state of the art covers a plurality of methods and devices, commonly called gasifiers or also gas generators, used to produce combustible gases from scraps of various types or low cost raw materials.
  • Combustible gases thus produced are used to power machines of various types such as for example engines for generator sets to produce electric energy.
  • Gasification technology for the production of combustible gas starting from carbons, peat and lignite has been known for some time, but has recently been developed for the use of combustible raw materials which are more difficult to process, such as solid urban and/or industrial waste. This is both in order to reduce environmental pollution and also to compensate for the lack of main energy sources.
  • the gasification of solid urban refuse or industrial waste with methods known to the state of the art has however often proved inefficient both due to problems connected directly to the gasifier and also problems arising during the various steps of the gasification process.
  • a first disadvantage is that these methods are highly polluting for the environment, as they do not allow all types of refuse to be gasified; to be more exact, it is inadvisable to use industrial waste containing toxic substances or those which are difficult to dispose of, for example wood scraps impregnated with resins and/or paint.
  • known methods give a low yield in that they require large quantities of solid fuel to produce a sufficient volume of combustible gas to supply the user devices.
  • a further disadvantage is that known gasifiers cannot easily use solid fuels of a heterogeneous type and/or which have a disuniform granulometry. In such cases in fact, the descent of the solid fuel into the gasifier is not uniform and causes gaps and/or bridges to appear in the material which are particularly harmful for the gasification process.
  • the purpose of the invention is to provide a gasification method able to increase the yield of the relative gasifier.
  • a further purpose is to provide a method able to offer a plurality of points of intervention intended both to improve and/or to control the characteristics of the gas produced and also to reduce environmental pollution.
  • a further purpose is to produce a high-grade combustible gas with a higher calorific value per unit of measurement than that produced by methods known to the state of the art.
  • a further purpose is to enable a high recovery of energy and particularly the controlled re-use of the gases produced by the user devices such as for example the exhaust gases generated by the engines or steam boilers of the generator sets.
  • Another purpose is to enable an efficient use of solid fuels of different types, including heterogeneous types and/or those with a disuniform granulometry.
  • a further purpose is to enable solid fuels to be used which are difficult to dispose of, such as waste containing toxic and/or harmful substances such as resins and paints, thus embodying an efficient damping of all the pollutants, rendering them harmless before they are released into the environment.
  • gasification is assisted by the fact that the fluids moving inside the gasifier are free to follow both ascending/descending routes in a vertical direction, and also horizontal routes; this makes it possible to accelerate the gasification process and to use solid fuel of any granulometry whatsoever and/or with different granulometry.
  • the aforesaid horizontal routes of the fluids inside the gasifier are achieved by the inclusion of walls with holes in them, suitably arranged inside the gasifier.
  • At least the walls with holes arranged in the area of the gasifier affected by the reducing combustion are made of nickel alloy or treated with nickel.
  • Nickel exerts a catalysing action on the carbon and free hydrogen produced by the reducing combustion, assisting the formation of methane gas and the production of a quantity of heat such as to require a lesser quantity of comburent air and therefore allow the production of a combustible gas with a low percentage of azote.
  • methane gas is assisted by the moderate temperature and speed, which tend to decrease, of the gas in formation which passes from the central zone, where the oxidising combustion takes place, to the peripheral zone, where the reducing combustion takes place.
  • the method according to the invention exploits to the maximum energies which otherwise would be lost, such as the heat possessed by the gas produced, the cooling heat of the mechanical parts of the user devices, the heat of the exhaust gases of the user devices and other energy.
  • At least one of these sources of heat, or more than one in combination, is used in order to achieve the following functions:
  • these sources of heat are used by heat exchangers according to the percentage of humidity and/or of volatile parts contained in the fuel.
  • the heat possessed by the combustible gas produced, and/or by the exhaust gases of the user devices is used by at least a first heat exchanger used to dry any wet solid fuel and/or by at least a second heat exchanger used to produce water vapour to be used as a comburent and/or by at least a third heat exchanger used to superheat the comburent water vapour and air and/or by at least a fourth heat exchanger used to transform the liquid fuels into vapour and/or by at least a fifth heat exchanger used to superheat the vapours of the liquid fuel.
  • At least the fifth heat exchanger is embodied with an interspace placed on the periphery of the gasifier device in order to exploit the heat inside the latter so as to superheat the vapours of the liquid fuel added to the distilled volatile parts of the solid fuel.
  • the exhaust gases produced by the machines are used as additional fluid for the comburent fluids in order to automatically control the calorific value of the combustible gas produced.
  • the combustible gases produced are purified of the suspended particles, acids and all pollutants and/or substances unsuitable for the correct functioning of the machines.
  • this purification is achieved by means of water washing and then passing the gas through granulated calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ).
  • the washing water is continuously purified of the suspended particles and the toxic or harmful substances damped by the gas, by means of mechanical and/or chemical systems.
  • At least at the inlet of the heat exchangers used to transform the water into vapour there are descaling units to remove at least the calcium from the water so as to prevent scaling in the pipes of the exchanger.
  • the gasifier 10 includes a containing structure 11 on a vertical axis 30, substantially cylindrical in shape and equipped with the appropriate insulating covering at least on the outer peripheral surface.
  • the containing structure 11 is equipped at its upper part with loading means 12, of the gas-tight type, for the solid fuel 15.
  • the loading means 12 consist of a metering screw 13 coaxial to a containing cylinder 14, which loads the solid fuel 15 which descends through the loading mouth 16 and pushes the fuel into the gasifier 10.
  • the loading means 12 consist of a hopper or other loading device known to the state of the art, provided it is gas-tight.
  • the metering screw 13 is, in this case, shorter than the containing cylinder 14 so that the solid fuel 15 forms, in correspondence with the upper end 17 of the containing cylinder 14, a plug of material which prevents the leakage of the combustible gas produced from the gasifier 10 and also the inlet of cold air through the loading mouth 16; this condition is also ensured by the fact that the containing cylinder 14 is inclined downwards with respect to the right angle of the vertical axis 30 of the gasifier 10 so that its upper end 17 is higher than the loading mouth 16.
  • the upper end 17 of the containing cylinder 14 is equipped with closing means 18, in this case consisting of a door element 19 hinged onto the upper end 17, so as to divert downwards the solid fuel 15 thrust by the metering screw 13 and direct it into the loading area 23.
  • the door element 19 closes the upper end 17 because of its own weight; according to the variant shown here, closure is obtained by means of elastic means 20 such as for example a spring, a piston or other means.
  • the metering screw 13 is actuated by motor means 21 controlled by means to monitor the level 22 which govern the activation of the metering screw 13 so as to ensure the continual presence in the gasifier 10 of a desired quantity of solid fuel 15.
  • the solid fuel 15, unloaded into the loading area 23, begins to heat up due to the effect of the hot gaseous fluids which, rising from the lower part of the gasifier 10, replace the colder ones present around the loaded solid fuel 15, thus causing a circling motion of the gaseous fluids with a substantially vertical trend.
  • the cold gaseous fluids tend to descend into the underlying zone 24 for the dry distillation of the volatile parts of the solid fuel 15.
  • the solid fuel 15 is enclosed at the sides by an upper outer containing wall 25 and an upper inner containing wall 28, both of which include through holes 26; the holes allow the colder gaseous fluids of the solid fuel 15 to be exchanged with the hotter gaseous fluids arriving from the intermediate zone 31, with the fluids circulating in the outer interspace 27 superheated by the heat of the combustible gas 45 flowing in the interspace 34 and with those at the dry distillation stage in the zone 24; the holes also allow the fluids of the interspace 24 to be exchanged with those of the inner interspace 29.
  • the gasifier 10 also allows an interchange of these gaseous fluids in a horizontal sense through the through holes 26.
  • the volatile parts of the fuel 15 distilled in the dry distillation zone 24 pass through the through holes 26 in the interspace 27, from here they flow into the interspace 32 and follow it with a descending motion towards the lower part of the gasifier 10, superheating during their journey as a consequence of the extreme heat of the combustible gas 45 produced, flowing towards the outlet door 33 through the interspace 34.
  • the distilled volatile parts follow this interspace 32, reach the lower part of the gasifier 10 and feed the innermost oxidising zone 35 where they burn completely.
  • the gases produced in this zone 35 pass to the more outerly zone 36, with its reducing action, and are then aspirated into the interspace 34, through the through holes 126 of the lower outer containing wall 38; at the same time, the gas produced by the oxidising and reducing combustion of the distilled volatile parts of the fuels 15 flows through the circumferential aperture 37.
  • the circumferential aperture 37 also serves to make any heavy particles present in the gaseous fluids circulating in the interspace 34 precipitate to the lower part of the gasifier 10, thus preventing these particles from reaching the outlet door 33.
  • the solid fuel 15 passes from the dry distillation zone 24 to the intermediate zone 31 and from there, reduced now to its carbon only state, descends for gasification both to the oxidising combustion zone 35 and to the reducing zone 36.
  • the gaseous fluids produced flow from the oxidising zone 35 to the reducing zone 36 where they intensify and, with a horizontal, tendentially ascendant motion, pass through the through holes 126 of the lower outer containing wall 38 and enter the interspace 34.
  • the lower outer containing wall 38 in cooperation with the lower inner containing wall 39, like the aforesaid walls 25 and 28, has the function of retaining the solid fuel 15 at the side, and also to allow the passage of the gaseous fluids in a substantially horizontal direction.
  • the lower outer containing wall 38 is in this case embodied in nickel alloys, or at least treated on its inner surface with nickel, in such a way as to function as a catalyser for the free carbon and hydrogen and assist the formation of methane gas.
  • the gasifier 10 includes, in correspondence with the central axis 30, a rotary shaft 40 able to rotate on its own axis when it is actuated by the appropriate motor means, which are not shown here.
  • Solidly associated with the rotary shaft 40 are both the upper inner wall 28 and the lower inner wall 39 which includes at its lower part a progressive enlargement of cross section so as to be associated at its end with a disk element 41 to collect and discharge the ashes.
  • the ashes are discharged by means of at least one inclined blade element 72 which is suitably activated when a temperature sensor 43 detects that the temperature of the ashes is suitable for their expulsion into an appropriate discharge chamber 68 including at least one aperture 75 for the ashes to be expelled out of the gasifier 10.
  • the rotation of the upper inner wall 28 and lower inner wall 39 assists the sequential and continuous descent of the solid fuel 15 from the loading zone 23 to the underlying zones until it reaches the disk element 41 in the form of ash, avoiding the formation of harmful bridges and discontinuity in the solid fuel 15.
  • the uniform and continuous descent of the solid fuel 15 is also assisted by the shape, which is like a truncated cone with the larger base facing downwards, of both the upper outer wall 25 and the lower inner wall 38.
  • the comburent fluids such as air 58, initially heated in the heat exchanger 48, and water vapour 59 produced by the heat exchangers 47 and 62, and also by the dehydrator 57, which are necessary for the production of the combustible gas 45, are superheated in advance, in the heat exchanger 46, by the heat of the combustible gas 45 as it leaves the interspace 34 and/or the heat developed by the machines 54 fed by the combustible gas 45 produced; these fluids are fed into the gasifier 10 through the conduit 42 and they spread towards an aperture 42a, to feed the combustion of the volatile parts of the solid fuel 15, and towards an aperture 42b, to feed the combustion of the carbon parts of the solid fuel 15.
  • This conduit 42 also receives the exhaust gases produced by the machines 54 such as, for example, motors or steam boilers for generating sets, so as to control the calorific value of the combustible gas 45 produced and adapt it to the type and the characteristics of the motor it must drive.
  • the machines 54 such as, for example, motors or steam boilers for generating sets, so as to control the calorific value of the combustible gas 45 produced and adapt it to the type and the characteristics of the motor it must drive.
  • the gasifier 10 also includes an inlet mouth 44 where are introduced the vapours of the liquid fuels which are superheated and mix with the volatile parts of the solid fuels 15 in the interspace 32.
  • the gasifier 10 includes at least one thermostat 61 arranged on the outlet mouth 33 so as to automatically control the temperature of the combustible gas 45 produced and automatically modulate the percentage of comburent air 58 and vapour 59 to be fed into the gasifier 10 so as to obtain combustible gas 45 with the desired temperature, in order to render the process of gasification more regular and to improve the overall efficiency of the whole system.
  • FIG.1 shows how the combustible gas 45 produced by the gasifier 10 is partly cooled by the heat exchange caused by the dry distillation of the volatile parts of the fuel 15, by the superheating of the vapours of the liquid fuels introduced into the gasifier 10 through the appropriate inlet mouth 44 and by the heat exchange achieved by a plurality of heat exchangers.
  • first heat exchanger 46 which superheats the comburent fluids.
  • the combustible gas 45 is then cooled further as it passes through a second heat exchanger 47 and afterwards in a third heat exchanger 48 to which it yields its own heat, respectively for the production of water vapour 59 used as a comburent and for the pre-heating of the comburent air 58.
  • the combustible gas 45 passes through a washing device 49 whose function is to purify it of the suspended powders, acid substances and any other polluting elements present and, at the same time, to cool it to the desired temperature.
  • the washing device 49 consists of a device 50 containing calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) into which is introduced washing water fed in a continuous circle, by means of a pump 52, from a shower-type cooling tower 51 which both cools the water 63 and decants from it the solid parts which have been damped down.
  • a device 50 containing calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) into which is introduced washing water fed in a continuous circle, by means of a pump 52, from a shower-type cooling tower 51 which both cools the water 63 and decants from it the solid parts which have been damped down.
  • the shower-type cooling tower 51 it is also possible to perform other interventions of a mechanical and/or chemical nature intended to damp down any polluting substances dissolved in the washing water 63; the recycling of the water 63 is achieved by continuously sending part of the water 63 to evaporate at least in the heat exchangers 47 and 62.
  • the combustible gas 45 leaving the device 50 is sent to feed a machine 54 consisting of the motor or steam boiler of a generating set.
  • thermostat 55 which controls the temperature and automatically arranges the supply of the exhaust gases 56 to the gasifier 10, in such a way that they partly substitute the comburents - air 58 and water vapour 59 - and thus increase the quantity of inert azote, and decrease the calorific value of the combustible gas 45 produced.
  • the exhaust gases 56 are fed not only to the gasifier 10 but also to a heat exchanger 57 for the dehydration of the wet solid fuels 15; the vapour 159 generated by the dehydration and the fuel 15 thus dehydrated are both sent to the gasifier 10; in this case, the dehydrated solid fuel 15 is supplied to the gasifier 10 by means of a silos 69 which functions as a supply and storage zone.
  • the comburent fluids 58 and 59 are automatically mixed and proportioned in appropriate regulator units, in this case composed of valves 60 automatically governed by the thermostat 61 according to the temperatures possessed by the combustible gas 45 as it leaves the gasifier 10.
  • the exhaust gases 56 are sent from the heat exchanger 57 to another heat exchanger 62 whose function is to make the water 63 evaporate so as to produce the water vapour 59 which is superheated in the heat exchanger 46.
  • the exhaust gases 56 pass to another heat exchanger 70 whose function it is to transform the liquid fuels 73, for example solvents contained in the paint sludges, into vaporised fuel 74 which is sent to the inlet mouth 44 of the gasifier 10.
  • the surplus water vapour 259 produced and/or not needed by the gasifier 10 for the production of combustible gas 45, is fed to a drying device 65 which is also fed by the exhaust gases 56 and used to obtain a pre-drying of the solid fuel 15.
  • the water vapour 259 is fed also to the heat exchanger 57 to assist with the final dehydration of the solid fuel 15.
  • This device 65 is used especially in the case of very damp solid fuels 15 such as, for example, bio-masses.
  • the exhaust gases 56 from the dehydrating device 65 pass through a cooler 66, in this case of the shower type using water 63, which, apart from lowering their temperature, purifies them of the suspended vapours and powders.
  • a device 67 to eliminate the unpleasant odours of the exhaust gases, used particularly if the solid fuel is composed prevalently of solid urban waste.
